You have an Arbor Trait store in Tennessee too?!

Just made supper for the family, did a jalepeno italian sausages then I tossed artichoke hearts with zucchini and shallots and garlic. I sliced the zucchini on the mandolin at 1/8th of an inch, and then dropped it three points (1/16th?) and sliced the garlic. I chopped the shallot and the artichoke hearts. Cooked down the zucchini and garlic in the left over sausage water. When the water was cooked out I threw in the shallot and artichoke hearts. Sliced the sausage on the bias and threw it in with the shallot artichoke. Tossed the whole thing with a thin spaghetti and olive oil. Topped it with shaved parmiggiano-reggiano.

I was all excited to head out to my boss's place today and change the a/c compressor on the truck, so I can drive in a nice cool truck instead of running with the windows rolled down. I got the compressor off, got the clutch/pully changed, put the compressor and belt back on, and started charging it with freon. I got a partial can in and started on the second when the high pressure line blew where it had apparently been rubbing and blew all the freon out!! I guess I'll drive in comfort next week!! LOL

I've always wanted a bike, but have never gotten one. I think about it now and then, but other things have always taken precedence over a bike. If I bought a toy, I think it would end up being an atv of some sort. I know I'd get a lot more use out of an atv for sure.

I need to get the AC charged in my K5. When I had the engine replaced the mechanic said the AC system was G2G and just needed a charge. I was already into them a buttload so I didn't have them do it but I never asked how much it would cost. My Sonoma has working AC so the K5 doesn't get driven much except for in winter so I haven't been terribly concerned about it.

My dad has some 4x4 quads. He keeps wrecking them, once broke his back and had to be airlifted out but luckily wasn't paralyzed. My stepmom won't let him ride by himself anymore so anytime I visit I go out with him, even though it's not really my thing.

Is there a way to mount the eyelet setting tool in the ram? I've been using my drill press, but it isn't optimum. Also, 1 ton or ½ ton?

The one from HF is a 1 ton.

I don't know what your eyelet tool looks like, but I'm pretty sure an alternative engineering methodology can be devised to make it work. :D:D
 
trade, what size angle do you need? I can check prices at the topeka foundry and drop it off on the way south next week.

Habs?! Why are they called the Habs?

Man, Hawks came into OT like the first period! They are playing like they WANT to win! It's weird to see in this series.

Les Habitants (say it like you're pretending to be French...Canadian).....if you look at the "C" on the Canadien's jerseys, there's an "H" inside it....

I knew about the H in the middle... I never knew what it was for... I never would have thought of "Les Habitants"

Yep, Les Habitants. Although the C-wrapped-around-H logo actually stands for "Club de Hockey Canadien."

And that ends our segment of Canadian history for the evening.

1/2 ton. 1 ton is overkill for kydex, I think. On sale right now and you can always find a 20% coupon. As far as eyelet die mounting, some folks have drilled holes into the ram and base. On the ram, I've seen both press fit and rare earth magnet for keeping the top die in place (YouTube). If you're not doing a lot of eyelets, you can get away without the dedicated mounting.

Pretty cool. I'm going to have to look for his follow up videos.

He has some pretty cool videos. I like the one where he uses a brass casing to make a little stove.

He also makes a foundry.... Im not sure what a foundry is though LMAO, guess i got something to google this morning.
